images-2 For many people, holidays are the hardest part of grieving. When you have lost someone special, your world loses its celebratory qualities.

Holidays only magnify the loss.

David has put together 7 strategies to help get you through the holidays.

Be honest about your grief. There’s pressure to have a joyful holiday even when nothing has gone wrong in life. You’re not a Grinch, you’re in grief! Don’t feel the need to fake it or be happier than you actually are. You don’t have to have a holiday joy!!

Include the loss into your holidays. The grief is there anyway. Light a candle in their honour. Dedicate the prayer before dinner to your loved one. Have everyone at the dinner table share a favourite story about your loved one that died.

Take your grief online. Facebook in the new town square. Share photos of past Christmas. Also, there are many closed Facebook groups, just for those grieving. You will quickly see others are also feeling loss during the holidays.

For events, always have an exit strategy. You don’t have to stay. Feel free to say, you just wanted to drop by or you have another event to get to. You can even text yourself if you need to…time to go!

Re-evaluate your rituals.Choose what works and doesn’t. You can even cancel a holiday. You don’t have to do those 200 Christmas cards. You don’t have to cook the dinner. Free yourself.

“No” is a complete sentence.You should not have to do anything you don’t want to do. And you don’t have to explain it. “No, thank you” also works well.

Pay attention to the children.They are often the forgotten grievers. We think since kids seem busy in school they are fine. Or it’s easier to focus on the adults. But children feel the grief and have less life experience and tools to deal with the loss.

C16-38a “DYING TO WAKE UP”: Dr. Rajiv Parti’S afterlife journey.

August 30, 2016June 21, 2022Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Choose Positive Living with Sara Troy and her guest Dr. Rajiv Parti airs from September 20th on.

Raj_Homepage850

DYING TO WAKE UP: A Doctor’s Voyage into the Afterlife and the Wisdom he Brought Back on August 23, 2016. Dying to Wake Up is the true story of Dr. Rajiv Parti’s astounding near-death experience, his subsequent transformation, and the wisdom he brought back from the afterlife.

“In my old life, I used to put people to sleep. Now I wake them up. And I have woken up too,” said Parti.

As the chief anesthesiologist at Bakersfield Heart Hospital in Bakersfield, CA, Rajiv Parti, MD was responsible for putting his patients to sleep while undergoing complicated and delicate heart surgeries. Although he was renowned in his field and skilled in his profession, he had somehow lost compassion for his patients, coming to view them as “profit centers for wealth and prestige.” Showy cars and a mansion in the “bulls-eye” of his prestigious, double-gated neighbourhood had become his one and only religion – materialism.

Then, on Christmas Day, 2010, Dr. Parti underwent an emergency surgery for a life-threatening infection. While under the knife, he had a near-death experience (NDE) that changed his life completely. Watching his body from above the operating table, Dr. Parti was completely lucid as his “untethered consciousness” traveled away from the operating theatre to his mother’s home in India, the brink of Hell, a reunion with his deceased father, an eye-opening review of several past lives, and finally, to an encounter with two powerful angels who led him to The Being of Light.

Dr. Raymond Moody, the physician and author who coined the term “near-death experience” in his best-selling book Life After Life, says in his Foreword to Dying to Wake Up, “The story contained in this book is one of transcendence and transformation. It is one of the most outstanding and complete near-death experiences I have ever heard in almost 50 years of investigating this phenomenon. It is powerful even to a veteran researcher like myself. It is remarkable.”

Dr. Parti was so profoundly affected by his NDE he underwent a near complete personality transformation in the weeks and months following his operation. He sloughed off the materialistic trappings he and his family had accumulated over time, selling his mansion and all his expensive cars. He began to reconnect with his wife and children, especially his eldest son, to whom he had often been abusive, and he gave up his anesthesiology practice to help people overcome “diseases of the soul” like addiction, depression and chronic pain through a more holistic, “consciousness-based” healing system that the angels had revealed to him.

Called by bestselling author Anita Moorjani “powerful, deeply spiritual, and transformative, not just for the man who experienced it, but for the person who reads about it, too,” and by New York Times bestselling co-author Paul Perry “(a) book about death, life, transcendence, transformation, spiritual mystery and true love and compassion”, Dying to Wake Up will give you a new understanding of the spiritual universe that surrounds all of us.

Dying to Wake Up is co-written by Paul Perry, the co-author of four New York Times bestsellers, including Evidence of the Afterlife, Closer to the Light, Transformed by the Light and Saved by the Light, which was made into a popular movie by Fox-TV.

When we lost my healthy, fit and handsome twenty-year-old brother in a drowning accident in 2010, I was in a state of shock and deep grief, like anyone in a similar situation, would be. But as the weeks and months passed, I embarked on a spiritual journey, trying to understand death, bereavement – and life. I read books, attended seminars and talks, grief counselling sessions and even a few sessions of hypnotherapy, and more specifically – Past Life Regression. I was curious and thought: why not, I’ve got nothing to lose.

There’s one funny thing about dead people, and that’s that you can talk to them all you want, and they can’t talk back. Or can they? Ask anyone who’s lost a loved one, and many will tell you that the dead can actually talk back. Whether in a dream, a whisper in the wind or your imagination, our dead friends and relatives are always there with us, even years after they’ve passed on.

A spiritual and psychological novel, Recognitions explores the concepts of past lives, recognition of people and their roles in our present lives and life lessons.
Recognitions is the first of a trilogy. To order please visit your favourite independent book store or click here or here

C15/27b Why Love Never Dies

July 3, 2015January 15, 2016Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Choose Positive Living with Sara Troy and her guest Dr. Jamie Turndorf (aka Dr. Love) airing July 7th-13th

Introducing Love Never Dies: How to Reconnect and Make Peace with the Deceased in her own words:

Internationally famous relationship therapist, bestselling author, and media personality, Dr. Jamie Turndorf (aka Dr. Love) shares the amazing true story of her spiritual reconnection with her beloved deceased husband, internationally renowned former Jesuit priest, Emile Pin. Discovering for herself that relationships don’t end in death, Dr. Turndorf has created her groundbreaking new Trans-Dimensional Grief Therapy method that brings her acclaimed conflict-resolution method to the world of death communication. The result: An unprecedented new method that enables the bereaved to reconnect, heal unfinished business, and make peace with the deceased.

* As a result of her deceased husband’s remarkable manifestations, Dr. Turndorf realized that we don’t die and relationships don’t end in death.

* What we’ve been told about the afterlife is dead wrong. We don’t need to wait to die to be reunited with loved ones in heaven. Heaven is a state, not a place. Heaven is here and now. This knowledge opens us to the reality that we are meant to say hello, not goodbye, and stay connected to those in spirit.

*Western grief therapy advises that we grieve, let go and move on in 6 months. Knowing that this approach leaves the bereaved at an even greater loss, Dr. Turndorf has created a method that enables the bereaved how to reconnect rather than say goodbye.

* Knowing that traditional Western grief therapy also offers no way of healing unfinished business, Dr. Turndorf has created a technique called Dialoguing with the Departed that enables the bereaved to make peace with the deceased.

* Reconnecting is essential for parents who have lost children, children who have lost parents, the elderly who are unlikely to form another primary attachment, for those who have lost someone to sudden tragic illness or death, and, of course, vital for those harboring unfinished business with someone who has passed.

* Since the beginning of time, humans have hoped and prayed that an afterlife exists. Until now, this belief has been based on a leap of faith, rather than a confirmed reality. Dr. Turndorf’s story is proof positive that there is life after life and that love never dies.

TUNE IN HERE FOR INSTANT LISTENING NOW

* The healing and peace that Dr. Turndorf’s story and method offers is astonishing.
